Tarboro, N.C.' Nov. 13,1914.

The President:

Dear Sir: Mr. Trotter does not represent the negroes of the United
States. We believe that he should not have approached you with a minor
domestic protest when you are filled with graver respensibilities, your
recent bereavement and the burdens of a seeming international conflict; should
have spared you such insolence. You are our President.

E. D. W. Jones, Pastor,
A. M. K. Z. Church.
